Lyrics Laura Veirs

Laura Veirs

Through the Glow

Flat stone skipping the surface sink

Into the golden deep

Crawl inside like a honeybee

Creep into the heart

Give me snow and give me salt

Troubles cracks and creaks

Watch ‘em tumble to the sea

Come back ‘round you see

Can you hear the cliffside’s heart

Bubbling red and deep?

When you’re slow not stop and start

You can burn a memory

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh…

Gather with me like the gathering clouds

Smooth the twisted lines

Float above the quilted plains

Up to the stars we’ll strain

I can hear the sparkling dark

Calling me to swim

Through the sound waves

Through the glow

Into the undertow

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh…
